Original Description

36C78621Q0206 Amendment 0001 Questions & Answers The solicitation states the prices will be determined if fair and reasonable by using methods listed below. Number 2 says the Government will use previously proposed prices, has the Government put the same job out for bid before? If so, under what solicitation number? No Number 5 says the Government will use a Gov. cost estimate in this determination. Has the Gov. done a cost estimate for this requirement? Yes. Has the Government done market research to determine that 2 or more SDVOSB are not interested in bidding on this solicitation in order to be able to put the solicitation out for a tiered evaluation instead of set aside for SDVOSB only? Yes, market research was conducted. On the contrary, there has to be 2 or more SDVOSB vendors in order to do Tiered Evaluation not the lack thereof. 3.Page 3 of the SOW states the Gov. will not furnish a storage building. However, is there an area available for the contractor to store equipment onsite? Yes 4.Mowing The scope of work states that during April and May, mowing is normally required more than once per week.

Approximately 12,500 8.What is the average number of burials per year? 450 9.The price sheet lists 5,000 headstones for cleaning each year. Will this increase yearly for new burials?

Or will the Gov. issue small sections at a time as needed?
